Yue Shuang said, “We think the man who made the palm attack must be their leader because he is so strong. We thought the others should be weaker. However, it is a surprise that every one of them is almost as powerful as the leader. They are all top-level Dao Origin Stage cultivator. In the end, twelve of them attacked us together. In fact, we could still hold it if we only had to fight the twelve. Unexpectedly, I realized they had somebody making sneaky attacks.”

“We are lucky that you came to save us. When you made the shout, some of them said, ‘Xiao Monarch is coming! Let’s go!’ Then a broad sword light s.h.i.+ned up and lifted the mountain up to the sky. In the dust, the twelve men attacked us at the same time… Yue Han and I tried everything we could to defend ourselves, but still got hit… After that, they all ran away. You came, and saw what happened afterward…”

Yue Han took a cold breath after being quiet, and then angrily said, “I thought it was a good fight because they were powerful and they fought us face to face. I was even praising them. However, it disgusted me when I heard someone say something.”

“What is it? Why did it disgust you?” Ye Xiao asked.

“That man said… ‘Yue Shuang and Yue Han, you are indeed as good as they say. You are actually beyond your fame. However, you only survived this because you kept staying with each other! Tell Ye Xiao that we are waiting for him!’”

“He said they are going to kill you!”

“And then they just left.”

“Then you arrived, and held the mountain.” Yue Shuang added.

The others were all lost in thoughts.

“Han’er, what did that man sound like?” Ye Xiao asked a good question. “That man talked a lot. What he said is consistent… He must be the man who makes schemes. I guess he should have something special while he is talking.”

The others were all spirit up.

It might be a breach.

The man must be highly ranked in the organization. If they could track it down and figure out who this man was, it would help a lot in finding out the secrets of the organization!

“The man’s voice is hoa.r.s.e, but it was clear. When he talked, he sounded like everything was in his control. It seemed that man was controlling everything… He is just so confident, and that is why I hate him so much. He thinks he is the best in the world.”

Yue Han thought for a while and gave a subjective description.

Ye Xiao frowned, and the others were all in thoughts. Who in the martial world of Qing-Yun Realm fit the description?

A man who sounded so confident as if he was the best in the world…

“It is some extreme confidence!” Yue Shuang added in a low voice.

The two ladies were twins, and they had a strong mental bond. They always knew what was in the other’s mind, and then explained it to others. Yue Shuang just added a simple word, but perfectly concluded what Yue Han wanted to say and gave a direct impression to the others.

The others had been going through the description again and again, but still couldn’t think of anybody, so they were all confused.

“Elder Shuang, Elder Han, what do you think about that man’s last words? Do you think it is true?” the Moon Queen spoke. “The last few words he said… ‘Yue Shuang and Yue Han, you are indeed as good as they say. You are actually beyond your fame. However, you only survived this because you kept staying with each other!’ what do you think about it?”

Everybody else wanted to know the answer from the sisters.

It was the right question, which could lead the sisters to think deeper about the enemy’s characters. However, asking the right question didn’t mean asking it properly. If the question came out wrong, it would provoke the ladies. Among all the others, the Moon Queen was the perfect one to ask it.

“What happened in the fight… We were just so lucky. The man’s words… I think he was a hundred percent sure.” Yue Han frowned and said.

As she said so, the others were all frightened. The Moon Queen exclaimed, “A hundred percent? How come!”

Yue Shuang made a sigh and explained, “Yes, one hundred percent. Moon Queen, you know us well. You know we can transfer our energy to each other and fight as one. In fact, we are more like four of us attacking together… When we operate our ultimate technique, it should be twice as powerful…”

She took a long breath and continued, “Though we have such special advantages, which allowed us to support each other by transferring energy and fight together… We have recently had some amazing improvement, and that must have surprised the enemy. Otherwise, they should have killed us both right there. It is one hundred percent. They knew everything about us, except for the recent breakthrough. That is why he said we were beyond our fame. We were so lucky. If we didn’t have the breakthrough, it would be difficult for us to even decide our own death!”

“To decide on your own death!”

It put a chill into everybody’s heart. [What? They couldn’t even decide their own death? Doesn’t it mean they would have been captured?]

Yue Shuang and Yue Han had such a high compliment for the men in black clothes. The others all felt utterly depressed, like there was a huge iron brick pressing their hearts.

[Are they really that powerful?]

[What they did was not their full power?]

[Was it eighty percent? Sixty percent? Or less than fifty percent?]

“They are undoubtedly powerful!” Ye Xiao took a breath and looked at the darkness of the night. “The powerful enemy has arrived!”

“They are right around us!”

“That’s the most important thing!”

“They have arrived!”

“Dispatch the order! Everybody keeps alert!”

“I have a feeling that the final battle is coming.”

Suddenly, Ye Xiao made a long shout to the sky, his voice resounding in the wind and reaching the clouds. “You monsters! How dare you to talk about killing me, Ye Xiao? Hilarious! I am right here! I am waiting for you! Come now!”

His voice was full of killing intent and the disdain from deep inside his heart.

His voice was resounding over the entire area of mountains and forests again and again.

“Monster! Monster… monster…”

“Waiting for you…”

The extreme furious killing intent in that voice spirited everybody up.

In the sound of Xiao Monarch, there was fearlessness and confidence!

Everybody felt like when those men in black clothes came and met Xiao Monarch, none of them would survive!

That was his confidence!

That was true confidence!

That was the unshakable confidence!

Ye Xiao waved his sleeves and said, “Let’s go, guys!”

Then he left first.

The others didn’t hesitate to follow him immediately. While they were moving back, everybody had the fearless feeling rising up in the heart.

[That’s right! No matter how powerful you are, you are just a group of demonic creatures!]

[Inferior creatures are not even human anymore. How could that be powerful?]

[What they have is only the ability to put on some illusion!]

They were leaving the mountain of Saint Starlight Sect.

The dark fog was rolling and scattering in the sky. On somewhere higher, a bunch of people in black clothes were furious.

[Demonic creatures!]

They didn’t care about being called that way before they turned demonic, but things changed after they did. The two words meant too much to them as they had become so sensitive to them. As time pa.s.sed, whenever they heard people said the two words, they would fight it with their lives!

Every one of them was a proud superior cultivator. None of them would like to be disgraced by that!

Just like those who had become traitors would hate people calling them traitors no matter what evil business they had done. These men in black clothes were totally traitors to all human beings!

However, they could only endure the hate.

No matter how hard it was, they had to wait.

All their faces had turned green because of anger.

[Ye Xiao! I am going to kill you!]

Many of them were swearing in their hearts, showing vicious killing intents in their eyes.

While Ye Xiao and the others returned to the base, he called up the leaders and started to make a.s.signments.

“The enemies are here. There is no doubt about that. All of them are superior cultivators at top level! We should not underestimate them!

“Now, the enemies are in the darkness, which we can’t see yet. Maybe more of them will come over day by day. They have been hiding in the dark all the time. Obviously, they don’t want to start a fair battle. At least not for now.

“As far as I am concerned, they are all powerful cultivators. They haven’t shown up yet because they want to defeat us one by one. We can see that from what they did to Yue Shuang and Yue Han today.”

“They have such a plan, and we can make use of their plan…” Ye Xiao gathered all the Dao Origin Stage cultivators together and shared his great plan.

After hearing it, the others all rolled up their eyes.

Most of the ladies didn’t seem to be supportive. They thought it would be some brilliant idea, but it turned out to be putting out a bait… That was all…

[Everybody can think of such a simple plan! Do you think you are brilliant because of it?]

[Do you really have to make it like a big deal and talk so big about it? That is embarra.s.sing!]

The cultivators Ye Xiao were leading were totally off-balance—men compared to women were too few.

There were men who were level-nine Dao Origin Stage cultivators, Ye Xiao, Li Wuliang, Han Bingxue, the three great elders of Cold Moon Palace, and one itinerant cultivator Fu Hongchen, who was called the Mortal Spear King, while there were women, Xuan BIng, Wenren Chuchu, Jun Yinglian, two elders of Sky Ice Palace, Xue Danru, five elders of Ice Cloud Palace, the Moon Quee, Yue Shuang, Yue Han, and three elders of Qiong-Hua Palace…

Twenty-four cultivators and seventeen of them were women!

That was more than two-thirds of the total. Yin and Yang were off-balance seriously.

However, among these people, only some of them were powerful enough to kill the enemies alone when the enemies were attacking sneakily. They were Ye Xiao, Han Bingxue, Jun Yinglian, Li Wuliang, Xuan Bing, Xue Danru, the Moon Queen, and the team-up of Yue Shuang and Yue Han.

In fact, either of Yue Shuang and Yue Han had the same cultivation power as the Moon Queen or Xue Danru. However, they just couldn’t get their own t.i.ttle Phase. They could defeat Li Wuliang, even Xuan Bing, or Ye Xiao when they fought together, but either of them alone couldn’t defeat the Moon Queen or Xue Danru!

Wenren Chuchu and the Mortal Spear King were not in the top-cla.s.s list. They both were in a high cultivation level, but neither of them had mastered their own t.i.ttle Phase yet. They could defeat any one of the three great elders of Cold Moon Palace alone, but none of them could kill the enemies when the enemies first took the sneak attack!

The plan was accepted. One person would hang around alone to catch the enemies’ attention, while several of the others would secretly follow.

However, for three days, nothing had happened.

Apparently, the enemies weren’t idiots just like some novels would a.s.sume. They knew what Ye Xiao wanted to do, so they wouldn’t fall on it.

Ye Xiao went out too, taking his concubine to enjoy a jaunt around, but didn’t see any men in black clothes either.

They were all worried.

Ye Xia’s plan was lame, but it was the most efficient one. If they couldn’t draw the enemies out, they would have to wait for the enemies to show up from nowhere. They knew Ye Xiao’s plan was stupid, but they had to go on.

A few days later, finally, something happened…

Ye Xiao was invited to join a wedding feast again, yet he met three people that he hadn’t seen for a long time, which surprised him so much!

“I know you are happy! So am I! But we should call it off now. Lord Monarch must be sick of drinking liquor now. Let’s just propose a toast to him and stop this now.” Somebody suggested.

“Excellent!”

The others agreed.
